Personal Information

Appearance

Mask: A young male with black hair (streaks of blue on one side of the fringe) and a pale face with dark hazel eyes. He dresses in a style known as 'Emo'.

Mien:Cloaked by wisps of smoky shadow stuff that cover his entire body and always shifting. The irises of his eyes are nothing but a mass of undulating darkness and his skin has a habit of paling into near translucence. A think veil of shadow now covers where his mouth would be, making it impossible to see through.

'Mantle:A strong, brisk cold wind blows through and with it the sound of whispering, indiscernible voices.

Personality

A very introverted and quiet individual, not a moment passes when he is not studying his surroundings and the people within it. He tends to stick to the corners of rooms and hope to not be noticed. Very sarcastic and dry. He was disillusioned and embittered by his life in the Mortal World whilst his experiences with the Freehold have resulted in him becoming narcissistic and emotionally detached from others.

Mortal World

Though he still has a human family, Davian would be one of the first to tell you this isn't as much of a connection to the Mortal World as some would think, having only gone back once to investigate a dream experienced by his sister, Danny, that showed them in danger. Beyond that he has little to do with the mortal world beyond that it is there and he needs to spend time in it to avoid falling victim to the Wyrd.

Arcadia

Capture It was the night of December 31st, 2008, New Year’s Eve. Davian’s parents had organised to host a party for the ending of the year and invited many friends and other relatives. Davian was expected to actually mingle instead of stay tucked away in his room as he’d prefer to do. Needless to say he was not having a very good time and envied his 16 year old sister who was staying at a friend’s house that night. Davian was able to extricate himself from the festivities for a moment and slunk outside to partake of a much needed cigarette, a practice his parents knew nothing about lest they punish the young man. He had only just lit up when a man from the party came out to join him. It was not someone Davian recognised, not that he was familiar with all of his parent’s acquaintances. He gingerly offered Davian what he called 'an exotic ciggy', it was definitely nothing Davian had seen before and thrilled at the prospectof preserving his own stash he happily accepted. How was he to know it was spiked, it didn't take the young man to realise something was wrong as his visiong became blurry and he lost feeling throughout body. At that point everything went black and when Davian woke up...well...he would have preferred to remain unconscious.

Durance Like a laboratory mouse Davian was forced to traverse a seemingly endless labyrinth whilst constantly pursued by ever hungry hedge beasts whilst many others would take bets and enjoy the spectacle. Being caught resulted in considerable pain and agony. After a brief period of recovery the process would begin once again.

Escape

Realising he could never outrun the hedge beasts, Davian would rely on stealth to sneak through the maze and hide in many of its dark corners. On one such occasion, when Davian could not be found, much to the chagrin of the spectators, a set of guards were sent in to find and retrieve him. Davian managed to shadow them back to the exit where he made a desperate bid for freedom. Despite pursuit he managed to make his way to a forest area surrounding the Carnival and from there the mortal world.

2013

• OCT – Escaped from the Hedge alongside a Polychromatic Fairest named Danny and after their interrogation were ingratiated into the community of the Brisbane Freehold.
• NOV – Travelled with Danny, Lachlan and Iago to the Toowoomba Freehold.
• DEC/JAN - Visited the Library and after offering Lizzy a story he read and learnt much on Changeling Society and Lore.

2014

• JAN - Joined the Winter Court and was chosen by Erebus to be his Silent Squire.
• MAR - Became a founding member of the probationary Motley known as the Guardians of the Found and joined a small group in killing Neko's fetch.
• JUL - With the dissolution of the Guardians of the Found, Davian became a member of the Corruptables Motley.
• NOV - Attended a ball with the underworld elements of Brisbane as a plus one of Belladonna. During the evening he and a motley group accompanied Finnegan, the Shifter, to a meeting. They were approached and attacked by Werewolves. Davian's leg was injured during the fight. There was considerable confusion as some within the group revealed themselves to be Vampires whilst others, who initially aided the Werewolves, were revealed to be Mages. Eventually the Werewolves were killed but so was Finnegan. The Mages involved offered healing and reparation after the conflict.
• -Davian was present for discussions and negotiations on the incident and about forging a new Concord.

• -Davian became Nemesis of the Freehold and by decree of the new Regent, Finn, and the other Lords of the Freehold he executed Danny as she had spent time with Goblins in the Hedge and was turning into one. Thus because she had broken her pledges she was deemed a threat to the freehold and a lost cause. Early the next morning he disappeared whilst visiting Danny's grave.

2015

• JAN - Returns to the Brisbane Freehold after being abducted and trained to join the ranks of the Knights of Utmost Silence.
• APR - Aided with an effort to hunt down a 'Jack-in-the-Box' changeling who had attacked some new Changeling in the Tranquillity Apartments.
• MAY - Joined Clockwreck, Michael and Grey in a bid to hunt down and dispose of Clock's fetch. Needless to say it ended in disaster.

Rumours

• Apparently Davian knew something about some stirrings within the Autumn Court

Relationships

• Danny: She is in actual fact his younger sister, taken to Arcadia earlier the same year as Davian. Coincidence? Or something else? Her mind has been fractured by the experience, resulting in multiple personalities, only one of which remembered Davian though he made no effort to remind her. Realising he could no longer watch over or protect her he resigned the responsibility to the Autumn Court and the Oneiromancers who could provide which he could not. Danny was the only person Davian would ever had admitted a closeness to and he saw her execution as the last he could do for her, saving her from the dark, harsh reality of Changeling life. As a result of that moment Davian has shut himself off emotionally from everyone else around him.

• Belladonna: It was a huge surprise to both Davian and Belladonna to discover they had a considerable amount in common and had many similar experiences. Eventually, despite his confusion, they became very close and were romantically involved. However after Danny's execution, his resultant emotional detachment and sudden involuntary disappearance to become a Knight of the Utmost Silence the relationship became strained, to the point of breaking. How or what they feel for each other now remains a mytery.

• Erebus: Mentor, Court liege and one of two people who would be close to being considered 'Friends'.

• Michael: Motley mate, confidant and the second of the two Davian MIGHT consider a 'friend'. Knows Michael can be depended on to have his back and offer assistance when needed.

• Adam Winnick: Despises him, holds him responsible for what happened to Danny and thinks him little more than a rabid dog. Sufficed to say he shed no tears when he learnt of Adam's death.

Treats pretty much everyone else with a cold indifference.
